Even if Santo doesn't stop them.. Who will accept their love? Nana won't, Dm won't and Taru definately won't.. They thought about others in the beginning, then they should have kept thinking about others and not suddenly have a outburst of attraction.. Khemi at first didn't realise that hiten loves her or that she even loves him, but Hiten did.. Still he kept pushing her in to marriage with shabmu??
And the biggest reason they showed why khemi was marriying Shambu is because she was a "manglik".. Is she forgetting that now and are all of you k-h fan's also forgetting that?.. I dont now what it exactly means, but the purpose was that mangliks can only marry a manglik or else there spouse dies.. I don't think Khemi would like Hiten to die..another thing for her to think about... In that way also the khemi hiten marriage isn't possible if hiten isn't a manglik!
So in what way is Santo wrong? She shouldn't have slapped Khemi, but she was repenting for that.. But everything else she said was just right in my opinion..
Well said and respect your point of view although I dont agree with it. Maybe it may be difficult for people to accept their love in the beginning but that does not mean they should stop loving for the sake of people who have already lived a good part of their lives. They can well try to change the minds of the people they love and care for and make them see reason. Why DM's own family had reservations about DM's marriage to Santu but did they not come around to accepting her? If an 18 year old girl from a lower caste can find acceptability as the mother of a twenty-year old, why not 19 year old marry a 23 year old man who loves her and whom she too loves all because of this marriage of convenience/compulsion between DM and Santu?
Social norms are kept for the benefit of society at large but when such norms become shackles, they should be broken.
Coming to the maanglik issue, if only maangliks can marry each other, not many in the country would find a match. Ther aer ways around to getting around the maanglik-non-maanglik. A famous couple who have that problem in the entertainment industry is Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bacchan. They had got her to marry a pepal tree (or was it a banana tree) before marrying him. This is supposed to ward off whatever problem that would come in their union. So a similar thing can be done for Khemi too.
Although this show has started off on a regressive theme of an elderly widower marrying a young teenager, they have showed some progressive and radical decisions such as the one on the cow slaughter case or Shanky marrying Kaddu marriage even after knowledge knowing she intended to elope with another man. So I want another radical solution to Niten-Khemi problem which really is not a problem of their making.
I would blame Santu too much for she is after all just 18 years old. She cannot immediately solve such a complex problem so she took the expected route of less confrontation. But tehn it is the lives for three people in question here. I guess Motiben's raaz will come to the rescue of Hiten and Khemi.
